Jieun & Greg met in Los Angeles in January 2013, while working together at Liberty in North Korea, a nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing and resettling North Korean refugees. In January 2015, they both decided to leave their full-time jobs to pursue careers in music together. In October 2016, they released their debut EP, “Small but Fortunate,” and in December 2018, they released an acoustic Christmas EP called “Act II.”
Over the last six years, Jieun & Greg have completed multiple cross-country tours with Sofar Sounds, an organization that curates intimate shows all around the world. In May 2021, they started a podcast called Gajok, a podcast about the joys, the struggles, and the beauty of being Asian American. In December 2022, they plan on releasing their second EP as an homage to Jieun’s maternal grandparents.
